Reading your Dashboard

The Dashboard reads from server-side aggregates so your charts stay instant — even after thousands of entries.


The Dashboard at /dashboard is where you see your data over time. Charts of weekly totals, monthly averages, streak counts — everything you've been tracking, summarised.

You don't have to configure aggregates. Kaizendex computes them server-side as you log, so the Dashboard is always up to date and always fast.

What you'll see

Each numeric Property you've been tracking gets a chart. Examples of what shows up:

  • Push-ups (reps) — weekly total, peak day, current 7-day average
  • Run (distance) — distance per week, longest run, monthly total
  • Sleep (hours) — average hours per week, best/worst night
  • Coffee (cups) — cups per day, weekly total
  • Weight (kg) — line chart over the last 30 days
  • Meditation (minutes) — total minutes per month, streak
  • Pages read — pages per week, books finished
  • Mood (rating) — daily average, weekly trend

Each card shows a snapshot. Tap into a card for the full chart with date filtering.

How aggregates stay fast

Every time you log an Entry, the server updates a Rollup for the relevant Property. The Rollup keeps a running sum and count — that's it. From those two numbers Kaizendex computes:

  • Total = sum
  • Average = sum ÷ count
  • Daily / weekly / monthly aggregates = sum within a date window

min and max are computed on read because they're cheap when you only need the last N entries.

This means the Dashboard never scans your full history. Even if you've logged 100,000 entries, the charts open instantly.

Streaks and counts

For habit-style Types (anything with a True/false Property), the Dashboard shows:

  • Current streak — consecutive days you've logged it
  • Best streak
  • Days logged this month

Use this to see how you're doing on:

  • Daily meditation
  • Vitamins / supplements
  • Smoke-free days
  • Journal entries
  • Reading streaks
  • Water intake (any cup that day)

Routine-level views

Routines have their own analytics on the matrix view at /routines/[id]. The matrix shows every session as a row, every child Type as a column — see Logging a Routine.

The Dashboard surfaces Property-level trends across all of your logging (e.g. "average reps across every workout"). The matrix view surfaces session-level trends within one specific Routine.

Filtering and grouping

(coming soon)

Future versions will let you filter the Dashboard by:

  • Date range
  • Type or Routine
  • Tag
  • Linked Entry (e.g. "all pages read for Dune")

For now, individual chart cards have basic date controls.

What aggregates won't tell you

Aggregates are summaries. They miss context: the why of a bad week, the story behind a 30-day streak break, the note you scribbled on a meditation session about why it landed differently.

For that, browse the feed at /chat or the Calendar to read individual entries.
